This is an amazing laptop. LOVE the screen, very high quality and I think this is the screen ratio laptops should be coming in.

I got stupidly lucky months ago when Walmart put these on clearance for $199.99 here locally. Was able to snag one via Brickseek. Totally YMMV, as I don't see myself getting that kind of lucky again.

Yes, it is 8GB soldered dual channel ram, so no expansion. With Windows 11, I've seen no issue to have more than 8GB for my needs. Even done some light gaming, design work, etc.

There is a single M2 slot, which houses the initial 512GB drive. I've since upgraded that to a 2TB Samsung 970 Evo Plus since they've gotten so cheap.

USB-C charging and a mini-barrel plug charger, so plenty of flexibility there.

It is very light, yet very solidly built in my opinion. Aluminum and not plastic.

Nice finger print reader for security and Windows Hello. I think the only thing that'd be an awesome add, is if the screen was touch. But not complaining that it doesn't have it.

I normally have ~10 Chrome tabs open, two Firefox tabs open, Slack, Trello, Spotify, and a Youtube video running all at once.

Is 8gb in dual channel going to be enough for my above daily workload?

What is "Intel evo" ?
It's a user experience standard from Intel that defines things like battery life, time to ready when powering on, and a few other user experience metrics. I've been watching for an Evo laptop for a while and this one checks all the boxes for me.

I'm guessing the RAM isn't upgradeable since it's LPDDR4X? Would jump on this otherwise


Yea the rest of the specs seem respectable. But the 8gb max memory is a let down.

In the short term it would be ok, but may notice a slow down every now and then. May not age as well depending on future use/software.

Something like this would work better...

Is this better than this deal? https://slickdeals.net/share/android_app/fp/710743 ?
Completely different laptop and use cases. Major difference with the one you linked is a 15.6" screen with 1080p resolution.

Has the speaker volume issue on Swift 3 been fixed on this model?
Have to use earbuds or connect to Alexa to actually hear comfortably.
Have a Swift 3 and my phone volume is far louder.

Description says "It weighs as little as 2.62 pounds" which seems like an odd way to describe the weight. Is that the correct weight?
EVO laptops are light-weight, but maybe they mean without battery?

I got the Book 360 deal for $350 but I would get the Acer if I had the choice. I use a mouse and I hate having to use an adaptor....
What about using a BT mouse?

Battery life is excellent, obviously depends on your use, but this thing can easily go 10-12 hours on medium workloads of consistent use. If you're running games constantly, I'd say 8-10 hours; the integrated Xe is no slouch at all. Very easily 12-15 hours for just browsing, videos, open and shut type use.

Also, the Thunderbolt 4 works perfect and as intended for uses like an eGPU. Connected it up to a Razer Core X with an FE 3080 Ti and it becomes a beast for gaming.
If you are so seriously into gaming that you are buying a Core X and 3080ti aren't you going to want 16GB of ram?

How about this - https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/d...hh753vlzrq
This gives touchscreen and active stylus and a convertible form factor. Also, this can be combined with Amex Offers for 75+ cash back for $500+ on Microsoft

I haven't shopped on MIcrosoft store so I'm not sure how is the experience on shopping on Microsoft

lol, I'm not a "serious" gamer, as I had the 3080 Ti already available from other means (Tech Side Business, Mining). And yes, obviously more RAM is going to improve for heavy game use, but it is all dependent on your games/apps. Some are resource hogs (Warzone), while others aren't. This is still first and foremost my ultra light travel companion, and not a daily driver.

Ah, had I thought you meant the screen is same as a laptop manufactured by Microsoft.
BTW, I wanted to buy that one for my mom (needs to do Skype & use MS Word & Chrome) but it used to sell for $450. Frown
